Dial Soil Thermometer

Timing is everything in the garden—and soil temperature tells the real story. The Diggers Club Dial Soil Thermometer takes the guesswork out of sowing and planting, helping you know exactly when conditions are right beneath the surface.

Ideal for vegetable beds, seed raising and bulb planting, it provides an accurate reading at root level so you can avoid cold-soil setbacks and give seeds the best possible start. No batteries, no fuss—simply insert into the soil and read the dial.

A simple tool with powerful results. Sow smarter, plant with confidence and let your timing do the heavy lifting.

 Size 16.5cm probe, 5.5cm dial.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Leo ★★★★★

Compared to my old plastic probe, this metal dial feels sturdy and the 15-inch stem actually reaches deep enough to check the seed bed properly.

Edward W. ★★★★★

I was surprised how quickly the probe responded when I checked my raised beds this morning—took less than a minute to get a steady reading. The dial is large enough to read without my reading glasses, which makes it perfect for quick checks before planting.

Lucy L. ★★★★★

Finally, no more guessing when to plant my seeds. The dial is clear and easy to read, even with dirt on my hands. I've already checked it against my usual sowing chart and the soil temps were spot on.
